Telltale has confirmed that it’s currently targeting Fall of this year for the second season of The Walking Dead: The Game. While Telltale CEO Dan Connors recently told Eurogamer that the sophomore season was set for next year, a Telltale spokesperson has now clarified, providing the following statement to IGN:

“The current estimated release window for Season Two of The Walking Dead is for Fall of ‘this’ year (2013), and not ‘next’ year (2014) as has been reported after a recent interview. We apologize for any confusion and thank you and all of our fans for your continued excitement for the series!”

[Note: While IGN did receive the statement above from a Telltale spokesperson, it's now been brought to our attention that it was originally provided to Game Informer.]

In an interview with IGN last month, Connors explained that “we’re doing a second season of The Walking Dead. That’s going to be a big part of what we’re putting people to work on this year. Right now it’s about figuring out the right way to approach the story, the right way to handle this that’s going to work for what we’re trying to accomplish and give it legs. Certainly we believe there are more stories to tell in The Walking Dead’s universe. The show continues to be huge. People understand what we’re doing. We’re going to continue to work on it. It’s a rich world for what we’re trying to do. We still have a lot of ideas to explore in that world.”

More recently, writer Gary Whitta told IGN “you won’t have to wait for season two to play more Walking Dead” in an episode of Up At Noon.
